Form Us With Love’s Nomad Collection remedies cable chaos in today’s increasingly fluid work environments. An ever-imaginative Swedish industrial design studio, Form Us With Love developed the modular Nomad system in partnership with technical design company Forming Function to better accommodate the hybrid conditions of contemporary workspaces – where charging devices and task lighting are no longer tied to a single desk or location.

The office has radically changed over the past few years. Drawing back employees who became accustomed to working from home during the Covid-19 pandemic, these spaces have had to become far more well thought-out, with both stylistic and functional nods to the comforts of domesticity and the unexpected novelty of hospitality – a rapidly expanding and evolving sector. With hot desking the new standard, few people have fixed workstations anymore.

It’s not all that different from the growing number of independent professionals working for themselves, setting up shop in coffee shops and a host of newly imagined third and fourth spaces.

Technology, too, has drastically changed in response to these systemic shifts, becoming more infinitesimal, flexible, and yet durable. Whether our work devices have actually become more efficient is another matter.
